Carrie's Busy Nothings: Thankful For :: 611

Thankful For :: 611 - 620

So much to be thankful for this week! I'm running a bit behind today as I normally have these posts finished the day before, ready to go up at 5 AM...but not today. I worked on Monday and Tuesday and then have had the last three days off - and it has been glorious!

This week I'm thankful for...

611. Three days off

612. Rainy days to enjoy at home with nowhere to go

613. A day out with Peter

614. Second breakfast (and pumpkin lattes) at Dunkin Donuts

615. Winning free coffee from DD

616. Peter's healthy eyes (he had an eye exam with our opthamologist this week)

617. Finding a pair of glasses that I really like

618. All-you-can-eat soup, salad, and bread sticks for $6.95 (and delightful luncheon companions)

619. Mugs of hot tea, a heated mattress pad, a fun movie, and snuggling with my honey

620. Our newly painted living room - LOVE it!

This is just a sneak peek - if you want more, come back next week and you'll see the whole thing!

And by the way, have you left a comment (or TWO COMMENTS, if you liked Busy Nothings on Facebook) on >>>THIS POST<<< yet? If you want to win a stinkin' cute tea gift, then I think you should. Giveaway ends on Wednesday night and the winner will be announced on Thursday (10/27), so there's still time to join in the fun!

Have a great week-end!!

Sounds like a great week! I'm loving your new paint colors! And you've made me REALLY hungry for salad and breadsticks :)

Hey Donut - No painting until you know if you're staying Stateside or not! ;-)

Kaysi - Glad you picked up on that. We also like Elevensies...
